Wildlife on the water

[Bobby Bass]

Good news. The eagles are back at the lake this year. Please share any wildlife pictures from your boating location. (Please no pictures of your own personal wildlife like a wild pontoon party lol).

We have Eagles nesting at our marina , which is why we have no seagulls .

seagulls....= sky carp

I'm afraid all my water videos and pics of wildlife on the water are of Ducks and Geese being harvested during the waterfowl season and probably not appropriate for this forum

I was lucky to find a bunch of videos in a box when cleaning out our storage area of my dad, uncle and grandfather from 1960''s through the 1990's Michigan waterfowl hunting seasons. Was sure nice to hear dad's voice again since he passed away in 2009.

Not great pictures, but here’s my first few of the season.

Our neighboring Bald Eagle took flight from the tree next door 2 days ago. Swooped up over our deck and house. By the time I grabbed my phone, and fumbled what could have been an incredible overhead slow gliding picture, I came up with this. Ugh!



Today this Turkey Vulture came in on our shoreline in front of the house to nibble on a dead fish that was washed up on our seawall. Was able to catch a few decent pictures of him with my phone.

We have 3 eagle nests and at least 2 osprey nests around our lake.
